Needs some work....

2006-10-10
I have had this product for about two years. All this while I had a good signal lock and the time was accurate. Then my battery (two AAs) were low so I replaced them with new ones; deligently following instructions specified in the manual. Ever since I keep losing my signal link and the clock runs slow. I moved the clock around just in case there was interference (although it worked fine for the last 2 years) all for nought. I don't have any new appliances that could cause interference that were not in the same location for the last 2 years.

What is needed is a manual "force link" button so as to link-up with the radio waves. My Casio watch has this why can't this clock?

All in all an OK product but next time I'm going with Oregon Scientific. I am told that their product is more reliable by far.

poor customer service

I have bought three of these, two as gifts.
One of those bought as gifts (for my father-in-law, naturally) died in less that 6 months. The LCD flickers, it cannot be reset, will not lock to the signal, and reads the temp neither indoors or out.
When I contacted the email listed on the back of the clock, I was told that they no longer made that model and would not replace it. No other contact info is available.
As an Engineer, I am highly offended by the idea that you can make a defective product and then eliminate any warranty returns by simply not making it anymore. By the way, they make the identical clock except that now it has the phase of the moon. Same clock, same price, no warranty.
Cool idea, neat clock when it works, but buy from a more reputable company with actual warranty protection!

I'd be lost without my atomic clock

I love this clock. It gives you the EXACT time. What's funny is how nearly every broadcasting medium uses this. Try it and see. Turn on your nearest AM radio at the top of the hour and it will nearly always begin a national news feed to the second! I'd give this one a 5 rating except that it doesn't have the moon phase display. Others have it.
